GHOSTWOOD 083: "Shapes" Is Up!



"You even have an Indian name, 'Fox.'  You should be Running Fox.  Or Stinky Fox."
"Just as long as it’s not Spooky Fox."
-- Ish and Fox Mulder, The X-Files: "Shapes"

It is happening again...My co-host with the most Xan Sprouse and I are back with a new episode of Ghostwood: The Twin Peaks Podcast!  In this episode, we continue our retrospective of Twin Peaks actors appearing on The X-Files by discussing "Shapes", the nineteenth episode of The X-Files Season One from 1994, featuring David Duchovny as Fox Mulder, Gillian Anderson as Dana Scully, Michael Horse as Sheriff Charles Tskany, and Donnelly Rhodes as Jim Parker!

LET'S ROCK!
